Surface Transportation Board Chairman Daniel Elliott will be joining the IMA-NA Transportation Committee to provide an update on recent activity before the STB at the IMA-NA Spring meeting in Washington, DC next week. The meeting is taking place at the Loews Madison Hotel on Wednesday morning, May 11th.

If you are planning on being at the meeting, please be sure to stop by the Hamilton room at 8:00 AM to hear more from the STB Chairman. We expect Chairman Elliott to touch on some of the changes ongoing at the STB; stakeholder meetings they've been holding and the desired results; and ways our companies can reach out to STB with questions and concerns to get the best results.

We will also have an update on the current state of the rail industry from the Association of American Railroads VP, Government Affairs John Wetzel, and the current state of the trucking industry from Trimac Transportation’s Galen Murphy.

If you’d like any more information, please contact IMA-NA staff. We look forward to seeing you all at the IMA-NA meeting next week.
